In order to support planned growth and customer needs, Clarion Sintered Metals continues to reinvest in new equipment, processes, and technologies. This assures our customers adequate capacity, robust PM manufacturing processes, and advances in technology not seen elsewhere in the industry. Our “powder-to-box” methodology replaces the conventional “batch-and-queue” approach to PM manufacturing, thereby reducing costs and lead time, and improving quality, efficiency, and throughput.
